We're in awe of Aesop's retail architecture — it’s all about localized universality, where a strong global identity is filtered through the local atmosphere.

Each store is uniquely tailored to reflect the cultural and material landscape around it, creating a memorable experience for every visitor. These images capture eight different Aesop stores around the world:

In China, the architecture of the new airport store is inspired by the island of Hainan, resembling a deep ocean cave and featuring algae to form the ceiling light and entrance column. Across the UAE, variations on sculpted minimalism explore sand-toned curves, deep marine blues, and sleek modernism — each one distinct, yet unmistakably Aesop. In Italy, the brand leans into retro elegance with pastel tiles, while in South Korea, the store embraces cooler tiled geometry with a refined, laboratory feel.

❄️ Wrapping up the winter season with our favourite Moncler window displays over the years!

From captivating electric neon setups, to crystal-looking sculptures embedded with addressable LED lights and all-white inflatable landscapes, this brand sure knows how to command attention on the high street!

Moncler's retail strategy leans heavily on immersive storytelling and high-impact visuals, reinforcing its position as a luxury brand with a bold aesthetic. Over the years, the brand has cultivated such a distinct visual language that its displays are instantly recognizable - even before you spot the logo! 🤩

This week, we’re exploring gesture-focused installations!

〰️ “Resonance” by Studio TISH translates visitors’ hand movements over a water artwork into shifting visuals and evolving soundscapes. Using real-time sensors and fragment shaders, the installation creates a dynamic, responsive environment.

🤝 “TOUCH” by Studio Roosegaarde features a sensor field that detects when two visitors join hands, triggering a transformation of the exhibition space into a galaxy of stars—a poetic visualization of human connection.

🎼 “Orcha-103”, created by a team of students from Gobelins, lets visitors conduct music with hand gestures. Using motion tracking and generative sound processing, it transforms movement into a live audiovisual performance.

First up, Dior’s stunning window displays in and totally blew us away. The intricate paper-made fairytale characters stepping out of a book felt like a dream come to life 🧚‍♂️✨

We're also still in awe of the Louis Vuitton x Murakami collab, which has been popping up in gorgeous interior spaces and kinetic window displays around the globe 🌼 🌸

And last but not least, KARL LAGERFELD's sleek kinetic handbag installation caught our attention with its clean, minimalistic elegance 👜 😎
